Ill-Conceived Magic: A Monster Haven Short Story

by R. L. Naquin

Overview

Empath and caretaker to monsters, Zoey Donovan, finds a package on her front lawn. It cries a lot and wears diapers. It also has horns, cloven hooves, and green skin.

Zoey and Maurice the closet monster look for the unlikely parents in a crazy attempt to bring together the mismatched family. A dangerous prospect, considering the family's hostile relatives.

Ill-Conceived Magic is a short story in the same world as the Monster Haven novels from Carina Press. It also includes a bonus first chapter of Pooka in My Pantry.

This story can be enjoyed without having read the novels. However, it fits chronologically between book one, Monster in My Closet, and book two, Pooka in My Pantry. Books one and two are available everywhere great digital books are sold.

This story also appears in the short story collection, Transmonstrified.

She fills her work with heart, quirky humor, and sometimes darkness the characters need to overcome in order to find the light.

Rachel believes in pixie dust, the power of love, good cheese, lucky socks, and putting things off until the last minute. Her home is Disneyland, despite her current location in Kansas. She has one husband, two grown kids, and a crazy-catlady starter kit. If she's found wandering around lost, please return her to her desk. She probably has a deadline looming and got distracted by a dinosaur eating pancakes.
